Record of the Lodross War

How is this anime? I've heard good things and Funimation is putting it on blu-ray in July.

Pretty shitty, only watch it if you want /elf/.

>inb4 there is a S.A.V.E. version
But they're selling more than that right?

Probably watch it with filesharing and if you like it then buy it.
Pretty much what everyone does, you gotta be a real tard if you buy an anime that you haven't watched.

Probably the more you are into fantasy and role-playing the bigger the chance that you will like it. The story is standard high-fantasy-schlock, that you may find charming if you are into these kind of things. Waifus are top. There is barely any animation, but the sword and sorcery character design and scenery is good.

It's basically THE fantasy anime. It's good. The OVA anyways. TV series is a bit..eh. I can't wait for the bluray.

The original novel is also finally being translated so thats cool

The new box set has both the OVA and tv series. I think I'll go ahead and get it, I'm pretty good at finding classic anime gems.

Would have nice if they included Rune Soldier and Crystania but that may be asking to much.

Yeah, I done some research and I like how the plot is based on a group of people's D&D sessions.

Thanks senpaitachi.

Just to give some context, the OVA was based on books which where still being written so after around epside 8 or 9 or so they had to make up an ending based on the notes.

The TV series effectively retcons the new stuff and picks up right at the split they made and continues as the story was planned, though a lot of people seem to prefer the OVA and I can't say their wrong. But eh, watch both.

I wish Shiris got more love

Actually on that subject the TV series is what has me most curious. Ive seen the Japanese Blurays, they look great but is the DVD set of Heroic Knight a remaster? Because I have the old set and it's in a word awful. Just VHS rips on DVD and even the chapter select is a bit sloppy
